I do a similar but simpler approach. I have one machine with WPKG
Client pulling from \\server\WPKG-test. I make changes to the XML
files in that folder and when I'm confident they are ready then I copy
them over to \\server\WPKG. It's handy to be able to run a diff
between the directories to see your exact changes too.
